Verse:1  
Am                               G                       Am  
A jukebox introduced us when the 60's were still young,  
Am                                G                    Em  
If you got the money Honey got my nickels one by one,  
Em                      D      C  
I tried to imitate that song,  
C        D                 G  
It's not right but Lefty's gone,  

 
G     D    Em   Bm        Am  
And always late breaks my heart   
    D                               G     Em  
And every song he sang I played the part,  
Em                           D      C  
I heard he was sad and lived alone,  
C        D                 G  
It's not right but Lefty's gone,  

Instrumental: G Am D G (stop) Am  

Verse:2  
Am          
He played the fair in Dallas one year  
       G                   Am  
In the cold October rain,  
Am  
Some folks stayed home in warm  
    G                      Em  
But he sang just the same,  
Em                            D     C  
I caught a chill before I got home,  
C        D                 G  
It's not right but Lefty's gone,  

 
G     D    Em   Bm        Am  
And always late breaks my heart   
    D                               G     Em  
And every song he sang I played the part,  
Em                           D      C  
I heard he was sad and lived alone,  
C        D                 G      Em  
It's not right but Lefty's gone,  

Em                                    D     C  
It don't seem like he was around that long,  
C        D                 G  
It's not right but Lefty's gone.
